The 2nd bullet was for in case you missed. Figuring you would. If not, it was for hedge.

At least the PAH got some truth out when she collapsed....the Donald is overweight!!!!1111

Actually, at his listed ht/wt (6'2" 236#), his BMI has him as obese. His doctor's report lists him at 6'3", which drops him from obese to merely overweight. Of course, his listed weight 3 months ago was 267, which would have him almost morbidly obese at either height, but apparently he lost 30 pounds in 10 weeks, by force of his yuge will.

You may find it ridiculous but it's a fact that white supremacist groups use that frog as a symbol. The man you are going to vote for is now using it in his campaign. As a white supremacist yourself, I can see why you are having difficulty understanding the problem but the rest of us find it troubling. We're inching closer to 1930s Germany here.

WTF would they use a cartoon green frog as a symbol? And how do you know this? I'm asking simply because I've never heard of it.

I think we are steaming toward 1984 and not inching to the 1930s. What is racist about wanting to secure our borders?.

The statute of limitations of white guilt about very real evils like slavery (which ended 150 years ago) and Jim Crowe (which ended 50 years ago) is drawing to a close.

Can you really say Jim Crow "ended" when you've (The White Christian Men's Party) spent the last 49 years trying to reinstitute it?

North Carolina Voting Restrictions Violate Voters’ Rights, Federal Court Finds
http://www.wsj.com/articles/voting-rest ... 1469810843

Sigh...

There is no possible way to claim that requiring an ID is somehow racist. If that is the case, then every bank in America is racist, sellers of alcohol and tobacco are racist, the TSA is racist for requiring ID to get on a plane and to get back in to the country, when checking in for a surgery they ask for ID to confirm that you are not committing insurance fraud..the fucking racists.

The ID's are FREE. It isn't a hindrance at all. The only reason to NOT support it is you believe that those who shouldn't vote won't be able to.

Meanwhile I guarantee the following on election day....

1. St Louis, Cleveland, and a few other heavily democratic urban areas will sue to keep polls open past the legal time.
2. Philly will have several precincts that have more than 100% of registered voters vote. Probably with BLM terrorists intimidating voters at the door.
3. Cleveland, All of south Florida, urban areas in PA, northern VA, and possibly Charlotte will all be LAST to report results and way last. You've got to know how many votes you need and if its plausible to manufacture that many. Detroit could be on that list also, but if that's the case Trump has likley already won.

Take it to Clay Travis' blood bank guarantee.

Trump a 'National Disgrace' Colin Powell Wrote in Hacked Emails
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-na ... d=42073252

Newly revealed emails hacked from the private account of former Republican secretary of state Colin Powell show the retired four-star general repeatedly blasting Donald Trump, describing him as a "national disgrace" who engaged in a "racist" movement.

A spokesperson for Colin Powell told ABC tonight that the emails revealed "are accurate," and declined any further comment.

Much of the content of these emails was first reported by the website Buzzfeed, and ABC News has not independently obtained the emails. Buzzfeed quotes Powell in one email from June 17, 2016, to Emily Miller, a journalist and former aide of Powell. Powell writes that Trump “is in the process of destroying himself, no need for Dems to attack him."

In another email Powell describes Trump's birther investigation as a "racist" movement that incorrectly suggests Obama was born in a foreign country.

“Yup, the whole birther movement was racist,” Powell wrote. He also said Trump wanted to know if Obama was a Muslim. “As I have said before, ‘What if he was?’ Muslims are born as Americans everyday."

In a separate email titled "racism," Powell writes, "There is a level of intolerance in parts of the Republican Party."

Was it racist when they did it to McCain? Would have done against Cruz if nominated?

What a bunch of bullshit. If Obama was a black republican, the media and left would have been on the other side and challenging his citizenship relentlessly.

It's politics.

[puterbac]

I'm an independent who voted Obama last election because he killed the number one terrorist in the world and made a gutsy call to do it
that one issue earned him my vote

I beg to differ. There was nothing gutsy about saying Yes kill Osama. Credit for doing it, but this wasn't Sophie's choice.

If had said no, it would have got out and he'd have been skewered.

Gutsy as in signed off on a mission that could've had disastrous consequences. See: Carter's Iranian hostage rescue mission or Reagan's foray into Lebanon. Funny how it became a no brainer only because it was a smashing success and no good guys got killed.

Otherwise, good work remembering 9/11.

Also, are you still luring impressionable young women into G10 with jello shots and shitty bands? (and if not, why not?)

puter,

hello

Nobody would have skewered him if it had gone wrong. He has to rely on the advice and expertise of those under him. Unless he was told it was impossible and he said go anyway, nobody would have criticized him. Desert One was a screwup by the planners for not having enough helicopters and then sand storms leading to the accident between a helicopter and an MC130 as a refueling aircraft.

The details of that op are pretty amazing. There were so many pieces involved with that beyond Desert One with CIA agents on ground in Tehran. In the end the loss of the helicopter led to a mission scrub. Wasn't Carter's fault. It was literally lame old bad luck with weather.

We are not in G10. We are at street level between G10 and Tboling. If you are on the pedestrian bridge between the two and looking down towards Fulmer Way we are along the wall next to the street. Jello shots were made yesterday. New variant is Fireball. Recipe: Boil Cherry jello with Apple Cider instead of water. Instead of mixing water after boil mix same amount of fireball from freezer. Ex. 1 big box Cheery Jello: Boil with 2 Cups Apple Cider. After 2 minute boil stir in 2 cups of Fireball from Freezer. Put 0.5 to 1oz in 2 oz serving cup with lid. 1 box makes ~50 jello shots. stack in cooler and pour ice on top. Done. Don't full up a full 2oz cup with jello. You'll look like pale trying to swallow a load from Talent. HI!

I have a spreadsheet if you need it to tell you how much liqour needed for what final percent alcohol jello shot based on how many boxes you use.

What's up? Walk around the corner from down Fulmer and you'll see us. Sat dish is up on Tboling level pointing along north edge of tboling.

Trump Jr.: Release of Father's Tax Returns Would be a Distraction

tsk tsk Should've stuck to the bogus "can't release taxes while under audit" story.

Honest question: What do you get from tax returns? Trump's return are already audited so there won't be anything illegal. Only thing is media searching and hoping to find he didn't give much to charity (or at least claimed as a deduction) and he didn't make as much for the year as he said. Oh and they will of course say he doesn't pay enough in taxes. Doesn't matter if followed law or not.

Tax return says nothing about net worth. I would love if they structured shit so he could file a 1040-EZ an release that. Now that would be funny.

"Watching the liberals and GOP Establishment react to it like the martians' heads react to Slim Whitman's yodeling will be worth... every... cent..."

That would indeed be amusing, but I'm not sure that what would result would be worth it, or even close. OTOH, if Trump does somehow manage to win, I don't think it's going to be nearly the disaster many libs think it will be. It will be pretty much like having any other repub as president, the congress will roll on as they always do, pretty much irregardless of whoever is in the White House, and if it's Trump, probably even more so. None of the establishment pols like him and it could inaugurate an era of bipartisanship in congress that we haven't seen since WWII. I'm actually not so sure that's a good thing...

Exactly. The only thing is that he might try to pull off trade deal helping US instead of 24/7 prison raping, H1B visa lies killing US tech workers, all above energy plan, and build the wall while implementing everify and fine the shit out of companies that violate it and criminal charges for those that knowingly violate it.

BTW way..

DJT +8 in Iowa and +13 in MO.

Only thing she can do is "pray" that he self destructs. She has nothing she can point to as a success.

Elected to state she didn't live in because her husband was president.

No legislative accomplishments of any significance in 8 years.

Ran and got ass kicked by a neophyte

4 yr term of Sec St and results is world on FIRE and idiotic withdrawl from Iraq leading to power vacuum and formation of ISIS. Before that ISIS was Archer's intel agency.

All you need to know about her health is how her SS team and handlers reacted to her loss of motor control. They clearly acted as if this wasn't the 1st time. They were ready. If they weren't she would have face planted to the concrete or right to the edge or step of the car. That would have been very very very bad.

Imagine if Obama had been standing and suddenly same thing happened. It would have been organized chaos as he was WHISKED to an ER for examination. The reactions tell you waht you need to know. Something else is wrong.

I've been telling people for months that he is gonna win.

If he doesn't screw up in the debate and over react to provocation (her only hope), it's done.

Ron Fournier recounted story during RNC about waitress who voted for Obama voting for Trump and a black truck driver who said he was voting trump. He kind of made light of it and thought maybe he should be worried about trump. He was right. Anecdotal maybe, but lots of anecdotal out there. trump rallies are thousands upon thousands while they have to close off empty space for the PAH.

It will be interesting but the media and Dems (same thing) will get worse and worse as long as he is tied or leading.

Ahhhh, the bottom of the rhetorical barrell - Hitler comparisons. Hedge had something to say about that over on the Florida thread.

Puter, welcome back to your namesake thread. Don't be such a stranger. Are you coming on board for the big win?

But people, people... Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Trump hasn't won yet. In the next 6 weeks, he's bound to say something outrageous and reverse his own current surge in the polls. In the debate, he might channel Gerald Ford and say Crimea isn't under Russian control. Or he might not know where Aleppo is.

[BigRedMan]

Yeah but what about all the GOOD things Hitler did????

[Johnette's Daddy]

Yeah but what about all the GOOD things Hitler did????

Exactly. I'm just waiting for someone to bring up Uncle Adolph in front of Trump - preferably as he is addressing a group of Jewish billionaires.

[Jungle Rat]

Trump would probably bring it up in a Catholic Church much like he appealed to the brothers and sisters while standing in front of a bunch of Honkeys.
